CEO interview: Walter Goodwin, Fractile
By Nick Flaherty, eeNews Europe (February 4, 2025)
UK chip designer Fractile is on the way to producing AI chips for datacentres. The company is developing an in-memory compute (IMC) architecture for AI inference in the datacentre with RISC-V technology and SRAM memory and is taping out test chips from its teams in London and Bristol.
The company is also developing reference designs all the way up to rack systems in cloud datacentres.
“Internally things are moving forward, we have multiple test chips planned for this year and a tapeout next month,” CEO Walter Goodwin tells eeNews Europe. “There’s also been a lot of external movement that corroborates our strategy.”
The lessons from Chinese AI technology developer DeepSeek has also helped, he says.
